Disadvantages of the Audi DLZA engine
There are no breakdown statistics for this turbo engine because it has only recently started to be installed.
The cylinder head and intake manifold are now integrated and cannot be swapped out separately.
The hot side of the turbocharger is facing inward as the cylinder block collapses.
